Chen Lianxiang stared at the ruthless man in front of her with heartache, her heart seemed to be torn apart.
Her disbelieving look made Xu Sizhen feel guilty, and he said impatiently:
"Okay, I just said casually, I will find a few people to bury your mother and then we will go back."
His understatement sounded like he was talking about what to eat today?
Just as Chen Lianxiang was about to explode, Master Sun took a few steps to block Song Jiuyuan and the others, "If you have anything to do, go back and discuss it."
Making such a fuss here would affect their image of Qucheng in the prince's mind.
"It's okay, let them talk."
Jiang Wan stood there with her hands folded, her cold eyes falling on Xu Sizhen.
She wanted to see how far this man could go.
It was also at this time that Chen Lianxiang and Xu Sizhen noticed Song Jiuyuan and his group.
However, they had just arrived in Qucheng and did not know the identities of Song Jiuyuan and the others.
Xu Sizhen frowned, worried about offending others, and even more impatient with Chen Lianxiang's attitude.
"Did you see that? You are disturbing others. Let's leave quickly."
"Xu Sizhen, you don't need to worry about my mother. I will find you and make peace with her when I get back!"
Chen Lianxiang suddenly calmed down. She had been patient for the sake of her children all these years.
She tolerated him taking in one concubine after another, tolerated his partiality, and tolerated him ignoring her mother's family.
But today she didn't want to endure it anymore. The children were all married and they could protect themselves.
There is no need for her as a mother anymore.
"Chen Lianxiang, are you crazy?!"
Xu Sizhen's eyes widened in disbelief. He once thought that Chen Lianxiang was just talking angrily and threatened:
"It's not too late for you to take back those words."
"No need, just go."
Chen Lianxiang lowered her eyes, took Grandma Chen's hand, and put her hand on her face.
"Mom, I am Lianxiang, look at me."
"Crazy, crazy, really crazy!"
Xu Sizhen was afraid that Song Jiuyuan and the others would be angry, so he threw away his sleeves angrily and left.
Chen Lianxiang was left kneeling on the ground crying bitterly. Jiang Wan stepped forward and handed her a purse.
"Your mother entrusted me to keep these. She said that if she sees you, she will give these to you."
This was what Grandma Chen told her before the execution. Jiang Wan didn't understand it at the time, but now she seems to understand it a little bit.
"Thanks!"
Chen Lianxiang tremblingly took the purse from Jiang Wan and opened it.
Inside were the house deeds and land deeds of her Chen family, many of which had been taken over by Fu Zhixian.
But now that Song Jiuyuan and the others are here, Grandma Chen knows that they will return these to her daughter.
Seeing this, Chen Lianxiang cried even louder, and she asked Jiang Wan in a broken voice.
"Did it hurt when my mother died?"
"For her, it should be a relief."
Jiang Wan thought for a while and said, "She should be very happy these days. Of course, the most painful thing for her was the six difficult years.
Living off her hatred for her enemies every day, her body had already reached its limit, and she had only persisted until now with her hatred. "
She thought that Chen Lianxiang should know this, otherwise she might be soft-hearted and forgive the scumbag.
Chen Lianxiang was stunned for a moment, then took Grandma Chen's old hand and started crying again.
"Mom, it's my daughter who's sorry for you. It's all her fault."
"Would you have been better off if I had come back to be with you earlier?"
"..."
She hugged Grandma Chen and cried bitterly. Jiang Wan believed that she would bury Grandma Chen properly, and the group left quietly.
On the carriage, Song Jiuli asked Jiang Wan in confusion: "Sister Wanwan, if you tell her about the poor life that Grandma Chen lived, she will definitely be very sad."
"But if I don't tell her, she doesn't know what she's missed over the past few years."
Jiang Wan said in a long voice, "People have to pay for what they have done."
These words reached Song Jiuyuan's ears along the wind, and his hand holding the reins tightened again.
Therefore, he also had to pay the price for his indifferent treatment of Wanwan.
Jiang Wan didn't know Song Jiuyuan's brain circuit. After the matter was resolved, they would continue to go to Fucheng.
Before leaving, they met Ren Bang and other officials at the city gate.
They completed their mission and were about to return to Kyoto. Song Jiuyuan took advantage of the situation and gave them a few words.
"Don't go into detail about what happened along the way."
"Prince and concubine, don't worry. I'm a lowly official and have a sense of propriety."
Ren Bang didn't dare to offend Jiang Wan and the others, so he had to restrain them from talking nonsense along the way.
Watching them go away, Jiang Wan and the others were about to head in one direction, while Chen Ce and his family were waiting at the gate of the city.
Jiang Wan always knew that he was from Song Jiuyuan.
"Princess, if you need anything, please call me at any time."
In Chen Ce's eyes, Jiang Wan, who had saved his wife and children several times, was now more grateful to him than Song Jiuyuan.
"Okay, Grandma Chen has a daughter named Chen Lianxiang. If she decides to stay in Qucheng, you can move around more."
Jiang Wan inspected Qucheng before leaving and found that the living resources were scarce, making it suitable for her to do business.
"Okay, Princess."
Chen Ce was a smart man, and he immediately understood what Jiang Wan meant, so that Song Jiuyuan next to him glanced at Chen Ce.
It seems that again, who is your master?
But he was not angry, and Chen Ce knew that in Song Jiuyuan's heart, Jiang Wan's order was equivalent to his order.
The carriage finally left Qucheng, and Jiang Wan felt like she had forgotten something important.
It wasn't until she walked for a long time that she remembered in a daze that she had forgotten to ask Master Sun if Bo had found Zhang.
"Didi...Master, the system detected flying snowflakes on the cliff on the mountain ahead."
The elf's voice was like the sound of nature, making Jiang Wan's eyes sparkle instantly as she tinkered with medicinal herbs in the carriage.
She quickly opened the carriage curtain and stared directly at the hilltop opposite.
The new year has turned, and spring will soon begin. The weather is obviously not as cold as before, and the snow has melted a little.
Young buds were sprouting on the trees. Jiang Wan withdrew her gaze and looked at Song Jiuyuan, "You go ahead and leave a horse for me. I'll go to the top of the mountain to have a look."
"I'll accompany you."
Song Jiuyuan was not at ease, and even Mrs. Song also said, "Wanwan, just let Yuan'er follow, otherwise we won't be at ease."
None of them asked Jiang Wan why she wanted to go there, which made her feel a rare feeling of guilt.
"I'm just going over there to pick some herbs. It's not anything dangerous."
"I'll help you carry the herbs."
Song Jiuyuan stretched out his hand to Jiang Wan, his deep eyes seemed to have some kind of magic power.
Jiang Wan subconsciously handed her hand to him, and it wasn't until Song Jiuyuan pulled her onto his horse that she realized that she had just been fascinated by the man!
What a mistake! What a mistake!
On the carriage, Mrs. Song saw Song Jiuyuan riding away with Jiang Wan, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly.
"I'm right, others should never get involved in emotional matters.
It's great to just let nature take its course and everything will fall into place. "
"But mother, Sister Wanwan said she wanted to reconcile."
Song Jiuli spoke weakly. Anyway, she was on Sister Wanwan's side.
